Uma Musume: Become a Legendary Trainer

Chapter 152: Anxiety on the Field (1w)

After reorganizing the tactical running methods for Ogurimo, Mejiro Aldan, and Super Kobayashi, Kitahara and others gave the routine cheering and encouragement, then left the lounge for the players and prepared to go to the audience seats first.

Outside the door, everyone unexpectedly encountered a strange group of people.

Masato Kurokawa, the president of Saijin Company, Izumusuke Fujii, a reporter of Flash News Agency, and Oguri's mother and sister, Shiraishi and Oguri Roman.

Behind this group of people who seemed to have no connection, there were a few horse girls who were dressed very casually and did not look like contestants. They seemed to be paying attention to this side, but their eyes were more focused on observing the surroundings.

"Hey? What are you doing..." Beiyuan was very surprised. He didn't quite understand how they happened to come here at the same time.

"Brother Kitahara, I came here uninvited. I will explain to you later."

Masato Kurokawa waved his hand casually and smiled, "This reporter Fujii is of course here as usual to get first-hand interview materials."

When he was mentioned, Fujii Izumisuke, contrary to his usual enthusiastic attitude, bowed slightly to Kurokawa Masato cautiously and reservedly, then nodded to Kitahara and raised the camera hanging on his chest to signal.

"As for Mrs. Shiraishi," Kurokawa Masato nodded gently to the Shiraishi mother and daughter and continued, "They are here to cheer for Oguruma."

"I see……"

Kitahara had just finished speaking when he was about to invite Shiroshige and Oguri Roman to the players' lounge when he heard the sound of footsteps.

Along with the sound of footsteps, there were also sounds of joy and surprise.

"Mom! Xiao Xiaoli! Why are you here?"

Running out from the lounge with a surprised expression on her face, Oguruma's eyes sparkled with excitement. Then, her eyes moved, she raised her arms, and turned around on the spot like a little girl acting coquettishly.

"Hey, look, mom, I'm wearing new clothes!"

As she spoke, she came close to the white gem, her ears trembling and her tail wagging, with an expression that said, "Am I pretty? Mommy, praise me!"

Seeing her daughter's look, Bai Baozhu smiled and nodded, then reached out to touch her head.

And when Ogurimo rubbed his head against his mother's palm with a look of happiness, Oguri Roman also jumped for joy with his eyes shining.

"Sister, you are so handsome! You will definitely win this competition if you are so handsome, right?"

"Yeah! I will definitely work hard and won't let Xiao Xiaoli down!"

Just like a mother caressing herself, Oguruma reached out and touched Oguri Roman's head with a doting smile. And like a smaller version of Oguruma, Oguri Roman hummed softly with happiness on her face and rubbed her sister's palm just like her sister did just now.

Seeing how warm the three of them were, Kitahara and the others didn't have the heart to disturb them. They exchanged glances and walked towards the audience seats in tacit understanding.

After walking for more than ten steps, Kitahara felt something in his heart and looked towards Komiyayama.

"Junior sister, wait here for a moment."

He pointed to the mother and daughter of Oguruma and said, "Mrs. Shiraishi is probably at the Zhongshan Arena for the first time. She must have been able to find this place with the guidance of Kurokawa-san. She is still not familiar with the location."

"You will take them to the auditorium later so that they won't get lost."

"OK, wrap it up on me!"

Xiao Gongshan nodded without hesitation, then smiled and said, "I didn't realize that you are such a thoughtful person, brother!"

Kitahara just smiled slightly, didn't reply, and continued walking towards the audience seats with the rest of the people.

On the way, unknowingly, the others quickened their pace slightly, especially Fujii Izumisuke, who walked in front like a fleeing horse, as if he wanted to lead the way. Kitahara and Kurokawa Masato gradually fell behind.

Further behind them were the casually dressed horse girls. Kitahara paid them a little attention and felt that they looked very easy-going. Their eyes occasionally flashed some frightening light, and he couldn't help but make some guesses.

These...are most likely the Kurokawa family's bodyguards?

Noticing Kitahara's gaze, Kurokawa Masato also looked back and smiled, "Ah, these are bodyguards hired through my mother's connections. Generally speaking, Ma-sama rarely engages in work like private bodyguards, and most of them are in public security."

"It's just that my mother used to have more contact with the horse girls. Because of this relationship, we were able to invite them."

Kitahara had already guessed all this, so he wasn't too surprised, but he still didn't understand Kurokawa Masato's intention.

Coincidentally, Kurokawa Masato continued, "It was also by chance that I came here today. 'Moe Monster' will be launched tonight. All major media and offline channels have been arranged, and Ms. Xiaonan is also ready."

"Now that everything is ready, I think I can relax a little and come to tell Brother Kitahara about this happy event."

He smiled somewhat relievedly.

"Especially when I was a kid I used to come here to watch games, but now I don't have many opportunities. Even if I come, it's to accompany business partners or for other business matters."

"It's really rare to be able to watch a game like this without any worries."

"How is it, Brother Beiyuan, you won't be unwelcome, right?"

"Of course I won't be unwelcome."

After learning about Kurokawa Masato's purpose, Kitahara smiled and then thought, "It's just that I chose this day to start the project..."

Before he could finish, Kurokawa Masato sighed.

"I told you that if Brother Beiyuan is willing to do business, he must be a genius. You can really think of the reason why I did this."

"Today's Gaoyue Sho has been widely talked about. It's the first battle of the classic three crowns of the 'Undefeated Three Crowns Uma Musume'. I think everyone is excited."

"We tried to divert public attention some time ago, but it may be difficult to do so on the day of the competition."

"With this kind of press conference, on the one hand, we can divert a lot of attention, and more importantly..."

He gave a smug smile.

"If Oguruma wins, my project will take off."

"If she loses, then the disappointed audience will have more energy to pay attention to this project."

“Isn’t this the best of both worlds?”

Kitahara burst out laughing.

"Brother Kurokawa is indeed cunning... Oh, I was complimenting you. I was saying that you are resourceful."

"No matter how resourceful you are, can you be as resourceful as you, the 'strategist' of the horse racing world?"

Masato Kurokawa smiled slyly, "I did make some preparations, but I guess Brother Kitahara must be very confident in Oguri Hat, right?"

"Not only her, I think all the horse girls on the Yongshi side, Brother Kitahara should have a good chance of winning?"

When he said this, he was still laughing at first, but gradually, his smile faded.

Because Kitahara frowned slightly.

"...Why, Brother Kitahara is not confident about this game?" Kurokawa Masato couldn't help but frown, and his tone became worried.

"It's not a matter of confidence. Any competition, any tactics and running style, ultimately depends on the horse girl's own strength."

Stroking his chin, Kitahara pondered, "Based on the data we have collected in the Eternal World, Oguruma and the others have a slight advantage in strength. There is no doubt about that."

"Then what Brother Kitahara is worried about is..." Kurokawa Masato thought, "Could it be that it's beyond that?"

As expected of the head of Xizhen Company, even if he doesn't know the trainer well, he can think of this.

"That's right. The reason why it's not a matter of certainty is because the variable of this game does not lie in our eternal life, but in transcendence."

Kitahara explained: "It's true that Nase Fumino is a genius, but she has only been a trainer for a short time, and she has only been the leader of the Transcendence Team for a short time."

"In my opinion, Di Ye Yixing and Kouchi Tadashi did join Chaoyue, and in name they are also Nanase Fumino's subordinates, but they are seniors after all. It is hard to say how much of their reason for joining is because of the benefits to the team, and how much is because of the face of senior Nanase Hideto."

"In this case, even if they follow Nanase Fumino's instructions, there may be deviations in the specific arrangements."

"This deviation will be reflected in the horse girl."

Masato Kurokawa showed an expression of realization.

"I see. No wonder you said the variables are within the Beyond Team. In other words, you in the Eternal World should not only consider the plans of the horse racing girls over there, but also the arrangements of the trainers."

"Yes, and I have already made arrangements in this regard, but I didn't tell Xiaolimao and the others the reason."

Kitahara nodded and said, "Didu Shooter is such an example in the Yayoi Sho. I told Oguruma and the others that Diidu Shooter has a bad temper, which will affect her running style. I also said that her running style will most likely be a big escape. This is my inference after analyzing Nanase Fumino."

"The trainer of Dido Shooter is not Nanase Fumino, but Kouchi Tadashi. Similarly, the trainer of Yae Mudi is Di Ye Yixing. Obviously, the latter is more accustomed to cooperating with Di Ye Yixing senior."

"Whether there is a problem here, it was not obvious in the last spring tournament, but it may not be the case in this one."

"However, I have already told Oguruma and the others all of this without revealing the reason, so there won't be any big problems. As long as they react normally to the event, it will be fine."

“There is actually such a difference…”

Kurokawa Masato was surprised. After a moment of amazement, he became curious again, "Then why didn't the Kitahara brothers tell Oguruma and the others the reason?"

"In fact, not only did I not tell the horse racing girls, I also didn't tell Yusuhara, Komiya-san and the others."

Kitahara smiled. "Because, these reasons are logically correct, but without solid evidence, they can only be speculations."

"Since it's just speculation, if we rashly tell others about it, it will affect the reputation of the Chaoyue team and the friendship between Oguruma and the others."

"More importantly, this will give Oguruma and the others a subconscious impression that their opponents have certain problems, and they will relax their vigilance during the game."

"They may not be aware of this thought clearly, but it can be easily reflected in the game."

"So, just point out Dido Shooter and Yae Invincible's personalities and tactics, and Oguruma and the others will take care of it."

He finally said in a deep voice: "If we continue to talk, it will affect their condition. The same goes for Xiao Gongshan and the others."

"It's better to leave these entanglements to me, the chief trainer."

"…It's really not easy for you to be the chief."

With a sigh, as if he had thought of something, Kurokawa Masato looked dazed for a while, sighed for a while, and finally smiled at Kitahara and said, "Okay, these should be considered as the secrets of your trainers. Don't worry, I won't spread them to anyone else."

"I just told you because I know that Brother Kurokawa wouldn't say anything nonsense."

Kitahara also smiled with emotion, "Because, aren't you also the chief executive? The CEO of Xizhen Company. I think many of the things I face are the same as yours."

As the two of them were expressing their feelings, they had unknowingly arrived at the audience seats.

After the debut stage, the mother and daughter of Bai Baozhu were led by Komiyayama to the viewing area.

The process quickly entered the gate introduction part.

Accompanied by the G1 event's exclusive player entrance song played by the orchestra, today's exciting commentary seemed to be more solemn than ever amidst the low tuba, high trumpet, and occasional heavy drum sounds.

"As we all know, only the fastest horse girl can win the Gaoyue Sho, so among the 16 contestants in this competition, who can offer a speed that will impress the world!"

"In this event, the most popular player is the Little Chestnut Hat at Gate 11. He is currently the most popular player!"

"14 wins in 14 games, she has entered the first round of the Classic Triple Crown undefeated. Can she become the second 'undefeated Triple Crown horse girl' after Ludo Symbol?"

"We could hear the cheers of the audience. It seemed that everyone was expecting the emperor to show his grace again."

"Then, surprisingly, the second most popular player was not Altan Mejiro or Chiyo Sakura, who won the Spring Championship or Wakaba Championship, nor was it Super Xiaohaiwan, who is on the same Eternal Team as Oguruma. Their popularity ranked 4th, 3rd, and 5th respectively, and their gate positions were 1st, 7th, and 3rd."

"The second most popular player is Dido Shooter from the Beyond Team. It seems that everyone is looking forward to the 'Undefeated Triple Crown Uma Musume' and is also full of hope for an opponent who can threaten Ogururi Hat."

"Yes, in the last Yayoi Sho, the previous Hanshin Championship, and her debut match, Dido Shooter has shown strong explosive power. She is also called the 'Chestnut Bullet' because of this strength. In terms of explosive power, she can indeed compete with the 'Ashy-haired Monster' Oguruma."

"Today's Gaoyue Sho is the second showdown between 'Maroon Bullet' and 'Ashima Monster'. Will this match be the battle for the winner of 'The Strongest Last Leg'?!"

"Who will be the winner, 'Bullet' or 'Monster'?!"

People like Kitahara who frequently come to the stadium or the horse girls are accustomed to such comments from the commentators. As professionals, they know very well that the outcome of a game has nothing to do with past results. What matters is the training and adjustments before the game, as well as the running style and tactics of the game.

What fans will mostly remember is who has won how many games in a row, such as Oguri who has won 14 games out of 14, or Tamamo Cross who has won 5 games in a row.

But in fact, wins are followed by losses, losses are followed by wins, and continuous wins and losses are the norm for most horse racing girls. Even when facing a generation of strong people, except for those top horse racing girls, ups and downs in their careers are the norm.

The outside world can see the heroic figures of the ever-victorious horse girls and cheer for them, but they themselves and their trainers know that this is a very cruel world, at least it is cruel on the racing field.

However, the mother and daughter of the White Pearl, who came to the Tokyo arena for the first time, believed the commentator's feeling and became worried at the same time.

"...Uncle Kitahara, is that Dido sister very strong...?"

Pulling Kitahara's trouser leg, Oguri Roman stared at the gate, his face full of worry and his tone full of trepidation, "Then... will my sister be in danger...?"

"Yes, Mr. Kitahara, although Oguri has won many competitions, but..."

White Pearl was also worried: "But I remember that the last foot of the final line competition is very dangerous. I really don't know if there will be any problems..."

Seeing this, not only Kitahara, but also Komiyayama and others and Tamamo Cross all started to comfort them.

"Mrs. White Jewel, don't worry. Oguruma and the others are in excellent health. They need to pay attention to their training during the competition. Regardless of the outcome, injuries will not happen."

Kitahara and the others were mainly trying to comfort White Jewel. After Kitahara explained, Komiya-san quickly said:
"Yes, yes, brother is right."

She reached out and pulled Miyamura Kyoko beside her, saying comfortingly, "Mrs. Shiraishi, look, this is a student of Dr. Kokubo Ren, who is well-known in the medical community. He has a very high level of medical literacy!"

"Usually she is the one who is responsible for the team's health issues, so there will be no problem!"

Even though she usually doesn't like to show off herself, in order to reassure Shirobishi, Miyamura Kyoko started to brag a little.

"Yes, don't worry, ma'am. I'm a graduate student from the University of Tokyo Medical School and will be studying for a doctorate soon."

"and……"

She hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "Actually, Dr. Kokubo Ren is my grandfather. I didn't tell you this before because he didn't want me to borrow his family's reputation."

When these words were spoken, everyone was surprised. Kyoko Miyamura had been hiding this matter, and other people really didn't know about it.

"Now, Madam should be relieved, right?" After telling her family background, she felt a little embarrassed. Her cheeks turned slightly red for a moment, and soon she looked at Bai Baozhu again.

“I see… Ah, sorry, actually…”

Bai Baozhu was also a little embarrassed. She bowed slightly to the people around her and said, "I am just expressing my concern. I am not questioning you. I believe what you said. Xiao Lili will be fine."

As for Oguri Roman, Tamamo Cross and Inari were busy comforting him.

"Hey, hey, hey, Xiao Xiaoli, don't be afraid, look at my arms! And Inari's... Inari, stretch out your arms!"

The two little guys' way of comforting was very direct. One of them crossed his arm, rolled up his sleeves, bent his arms, and revealed his biceps which did not look exaggerated at all.

"Come and try to pinch it, little chestnut!"

Oguri Roman was a little confused at first, but when he saw that Tamamo Cross and Inari Kazuichi both looked encouraging, he couldn't help but subconsciously stretched out his hand and pinched it.

“…It’s so hard.”

"Yeah, yeah, my muscles don't look like much, but the quality is very good!"

As she spoke, Tamamo crossed her arms and crossed her arms. Then, she moved her eyes and waved at Inari, "Hey, Inari, move aside."

When Tamamo Cross called her to show off her muscles, Inari Ichi understood what she was going to do, which was probably to show off their physical fitness, but he was a little confused about why she was asked to move aside.

However, she still took a step slightly to the side, and soon she saw Tamamo cross-stance, facing the railing of the audience seats behind her, and took a deep breath.

"Drink!" Boom——!
With a loud shout and a punch, the railing extending dozens of meters here shook violently. After Tamamo Cross punched the railing, a fist mark appeared on the surface of the metal cylindrical railing with the thickness of a bowl.

"Hiss... Huh, see, my body is like this!"

He twitched the corner of his mouth imperceptibly, put his fist behind his back, and rubbed it with his other hand, with a look of distorted pride on Tamamo Cross's face.

"I'm telling you, Xiao Xiaoli, this is the same boxing style as your sister. I learned it from a sister named Yae. It's very powerful. Your sister also knows it."

"Besides, your sister's physical fitness is even better than ours. Others call her a monster."

"So, if we really want to compete in the last kick, the one you should worry about is not your sister, but that Dido shooter!"

"You, just cheer for your sister!"

Now, like Inari, Oguri Roman also understood the meaning of the Tamamo Cross and immediately began to smile happily.

"It turns out my sister is more capable than I thought!"

She waved her hands, rushed to the railing, and looked at the track with sparkling eyes, "Sister! Come on! You will not lose!"

Just as the little girl was in high spirits, behind her...

“Pfft… Although it’s very rude, but…”

Covering his face with a fox mask, Inari looked at Tamamo Cross through the mask and said in a muffled voice: "Your hand..."

“Shut up…”

Gritting his teeth, lowering his voice, rubbing his hands desperately, Tamamo Cross glared at Inari fiercely, "Don't think I didn't hear you laughing..."

“It hurts so much…”

While everyone was comforting White Pearl and her daughter, the commentary voice echoing in the stadium became louder and louder.

"Okay, all the horse girls have entered the gate and are ready to go."

"Then let's get ready for the first race of the Triple Crown, the G1 Gaoyue Sho, 2000 meters on grass..."

"Start!"

"The horse racing ladies completed a beautiful exit in unison!"

"The two contestants who took the lead were Didu Shooter and Didu Daichi. What a coincidence, the names of the two horse racing girls."

"Didu Daichi had chosen the escape tactic before, so her choice was not unexpected. In the Yayoi Sho, Didu Archer chose the central run tactic. This time, she chose to escape. Is she planning to win by surprise or is she making a tactical adjustment?"

"The battle for the lead position is quite intense, both players are showing amazing speed...ah, I've already remembered that the Dido shooter is currently leading by one body length!"

"Then came the lead... the horse racing ladies in the lead position were almost huddled together!"

"Oguruma, Super Cove, Mejiro Aldan, Sakura Chiyoou, my Breeze, a total of 5 horse girls chose to run first."

"Since the gate is on the outside lane of No. 11, it seems that Oguri was unable to grab a more advantageous position on the inside at the beginning and is now stuck on the outside."

"I don't know if it's accidental or inevitable, but maybe the horse girl from the Eternal Team is too eye-catching and is often pushed to the side by her opponents."

"What's even more surprising is that even though they are on the same team, Super Bay and Mejiro Aldan have no intention of giving up their place to their companions."

"The advantage of the gate being on the inside allowed the two of them to grab the best and second best positions on the inner lane, blocking Oguruma's inner route while forcing Sakura Chiyoou and my Breeze to stay behind."

"Not only that, the team in the middle led by Yae Wudi was also affected by this and didn't get too close to the front."

“It’s easy to imagine that when the last bend and the last straight are approaching, facing the front line formed by the five horse girls in front, the horse girls in the middle and the chasing positions will have to work harder to break through the siege.”

"So, is this obviously encircled position also the plan of Mr. Kitahara, the 'Ingenious Planner'?"

"This encirclement method not only limits opponents such as Sakura Chiyoou and Yae Mudi, but also puts more pressure on the Didu shooters in front."

“If this position is maintained until the end, in a three-on-one situation, Dido shooter will be very dangerous.”

"As expected of the Eternal Team's chief trainer, this is an excellent tactic!"

…My arrangement does have this intention, but…

Having been paying attention to the situation on the track and hearing the commentator's voice, Kitahara couldn't help but be speechless.

Why does it seem like I'm treacherous when this commentator mentions it?
I didn't design any gates for Oguruma and the others...well, they were designed to influence the opponent's tactics.

What encirclement... coincidence, just a coincidence.

Just as Kitahara was secretly complaining, the race quickly passed the first turn and the 16 horse girls galloped towards the second turn.

Although the leading Didu shooter couldn’t see behind her, she could feel everything behind her.

She didn't feel that Dido Daichi, who was following closely behind her, was a threat at all. As a fellow runaway horse girl, she could tell some things right away as soon as they got out of the gate.

Running away does not mean rushing forward recklessly. On the contrary, this way of running requires extremely delicate perception.

The perception of one's own physical strength, the perception of distance, especially the perception of distance.

Just like a swordsman, this is the best description of the mentality of the fleeing horse girl. The distance from the opponent is like the buffer zone between two swordsmen. It must be precise enough without any deviation.

From the perspective of racing, you do not need to draw your sword or anything like that, but once your opponent draws his sword, that is, accelerates, you must ensure that the sword stops before touching you and must not be touched.

This extreme distance is the minimum distance of advantage that must be maintained before crossing the finish line.

Dido Shooter is a horse girl who is good at escaping, even running away. She knows very well that opponents who are running away like her do not have a very precise sense of distance.

If you fail to grab the lead, you can indeed fall behind a little, but the distance between you and the person behind you is very poor. Once you reach the finish line, the other person can neither surpass you nor maintain the advantage over the horse girl behind you.

She was not worried about her two opponents on the same team, Sakura Chiyo and Yae Mudi. After spending time together with them, she was confident that she could defeat them.

What she was really worried about were the three neat pressures behind her.

…the one closest to the inside, his steps were as precise as if they were measured with a ruler, the gap between each step was almost the same, and the rhythm reflected by the sounds of his breathing and arm swings was as standard as a textbook, that…

Didu shooter opened his mouth, widened his eyes, his pupils contracted slightly, and revealed a neurotic smile.

It was definitely Aldan Mejiro.

Hahaha……

Hahaha!
What are you doing, you eternity?!

One or two of them, are they all monsters? !

It was such an intense competition, such a tense first match of the Triple Crown, but he was able to speak in such a standard, exquisite and elegant manner just like he usually does in class...

As expected of the eldest daughter of the Mejiro family, Aldan...

Another pressure...haha, it's definitely a super small bay.

The pace is not fast, and the arm swing strength is not very good, but...

The breathing is too dense and long, this guy...

Are you really running?!

You're taking a walk, right?!
Hahaha! This is so exciting! I thought that only Ogururo was a threat, a real monster, but it turns out that all of you are!
I really want to know what kind of monsters Tamamo Cross and Inari Ichi are. Those two guys are both in the Year of the Ancient Horse. If I compete with them...

It must be exciting!

but……

Her emotions were surging, and she took several deep breaths, forcing herself to calm down.

Don't get too excited.

At present, Aldan and Little Bay have not used their respective tactics, and there is no obvious change in speed, status, etc.

Although we have already discovered the essence of the two tactics, as long as we don't get confused, but...

Ha... How can I be calm? Besides the pressure from these two, the one on the outermost...

Even scarier!
Shooter Dido didn't think that what she thought was exaggerated. As a horse racing girl, she knew that the pressure from the left rear was really exaggerated.

The heavy footsteps hitting the ground sounded like drums beating on the chest, and the powerful breathing with clear rhythm did not sound like something a living creature could make. It was more like a low roar coming from some strange being hidden deep in a dark and unknown plane.

And that shriek that was like tearing the wind was definitely not something that an ordinary horse girl could make. Only that guy called "Reed-haired Monster" could make such a terrifying noise.

But the "monster" itself was unaware of all this.

...Hmm, is it an illusion? I always feel like Dido seemed to look back.

Running with a unique ultra-low center of gravity, he rushed forward, looking straight ahead. The situation of the entire stadium was clearly displayed in Oguruma's mind.

She originally had the ability to overlook the entire stadium, and after blindfold training enhanced her relevant senses, her ability in this area was further improved.

In the past, she could collect a large amount of information through her various senses, and instantly piece that information together into a holographic image in her mind.

At the moment, the picture is more "detailed", almost as detailed as being able to see the opponent "face to face".

She could "see" the strange and excited face of the archer Dido, and the look of the horse racing girl behind him who was following closely with clenched teeth.

"See" the calm look of Mebai Aldan and the calm demeanor of Super Xiaowan.

You can also "see" the various expressions and postures of Yaezaki Invincible and other opponents coming later.

Ogurumao understands these opponents. Although she is not good at all running styles, she has participated in 14 competitions so far and has many running companions on weekdays. She knows very well how to perform in each running style, which is exactly what these opponents are showing at this moment.

only……

She became confused.

What’s going on between Chiyo-sama and the horse girl next to her…?
It's clearly not the end yet, it's just the beginning, why are their breathing so rapid, and their pace quickening...

There is no need to do that.

Just as Oguruma was puzzled, the commentary echoing in the stadium suddenly became uncertain.

"Oh no! It looks like the plan of Mr. Kitahara from the Strange Strategist family has worked. Sakura Chiyo-sama and my Breeze..."

"They are both getting anxious. They are running so fast!"

"We are still in the second straight section, 1100 meters away from the finish line, and they can no longer hold back their desire to break out of the encirclement."

"They rushed forward from the inside and significantly closed the gap with Mejiro Aldan and Super Cove."

"But this kind of closing in is meaningless. With the two horse girls in front of them side by side, they don't have any chance of breaking out."

"There is indeed a gap in the left front, but right next to them is Ogurume. If we rush forward like this, it will affect Ogurume's forward movement and cause a diagonal foul."

"I hope they can calm down quickly and not waste their energy too early."

The sudden anxiety on the field caused some cheers and encouragement from the audience. Many people shouted "calm down", while many others discussed the disadvantages of this situation.

Those who are familiar with the personalities of Uma Girls know very well that this pure and kind race has simple emotions in most cases. If they become anxious during a competition, it almost means that it will be difficult to win the game.

Generally speaking, anxiety will make them lose their accurate judgment of speed, distance, position, etc., and they will often accelerate and change positions at inappropriate times.

For example, a horse girl who is running away will ignore her physical strength limit in a state of anxiety and enter a state of unreserved acceleration and rampage. The horse girl who is ahead will grab the position in advance and become a runaway horse while running.

The same is true for horse girls who run in the center and chase.

No matter how they change speed and position, they all have something in common, which is that they consume physical energy to accelerate and overtake, and when the control ability decreases, this consumption will be greater than normal acceleration.

This is fatal for the competition. Once you fail to react in time and lose too much physical strength, you will not be able to sprint in the race due to lack of physical strength, or you will simply stall.

Knowing the seriousness of the situation, not only the commentators and spectators were worried, but people in Kitahara were also talking about it.

However, they changed the topic after discussing for long because Roman Oguri asked with some trepidation.

"Oh...what did the commentator say just now about influence? Will it affect you...?"

Since it was her first time at the race and she hadn’t joined the Uma Musume Academy yet, the little girl knew very little about the race and she didn’t pay attention to too many things. She just wanted to know if there was any accident with Oguruma.

The entire Yongshi team doted on this little guy, and when she said this, everyone naturally hurried to explain.

"Don't worry, this situation shouldn't affect your sister."

Beiyuan raised both hands, one hand with five fingers together and held it vertically to greet, and the other hand with five fingers together and held it diagonally in the air, he gestured:

"Like this, your sister was originally running forward. If you move forward diagonally from her side, it will affect her progress, which is a foul."

"If you really want to surpass..."

He moved his lower hand sideways a little, and gradually raised his upper hand and stretched it upwards. "If I run at a slight angle, I won't block the runners behind me, and I won't commit a foul."

"We have repeatedly stressed the seriousness of oblique walking during training and have practiced how to deal with it."

The Yongshi team has this awareness because of Kitahara’s memory of the small bay.

In another world, this horse racing girl committed a diagonal foul. The punishment for this foul is extremely severe. The minimum penalty is a demotion. The most serious penalty is even the cancellation of all results or even a ban.

With such memory, he had already mentioned these to Oguruma and the others repeatedly as routine homework, asking them to practice without worrying about any accidents.

If you have practiced it daily, there is no need to emphasize it too much before the official competition, otherwise it will give the horse racing ladies unnecessary pressure.

Just as Kitahara and others were patiently comforting Roman Oguri, the contestants on the field had gradually passed the third turn and were heading towards the fourth turn.

The discussions in the audience that had been mixed with cheers turned into cheers, and the commentator's voice also became louder.

"Luckily, Sakura Chiyoou and my Breeze stopped getting anxious in time, and they passed the third turn with the other players!"

“The fourth turn and the final straight are coming, which is often the key to victory!”

“The final bend and the final straight of Zhongshan 2000 meters are very long. The final bend is from 1450 meters to 1690 meters, and the final straight is from 1690 meters to 2000 meters. Add the distance between the third bend and the final bend, it is a full 600 meters!”

"This includes a 2-meter height difference at the end of the straight line, a steep slope known as a 'heart killer'. Faced with such an upcoming challenge, who will choose to take the first step?"

"Is it before the fourth turn? After the turn? Or...it appears!"

“It’s a super cove, she chose to speed up just after the third turn!”

"It's not unheard of to choose to accelerate directly for the remaining 600 meters, but if this super cove with the 'arc artist' tactics..."

"Is this a feint or a real acceleration?!"

"How are the other horse girls supposed to deal with this?!"

There is a serious bug in the previous chapter, I will fix it later

I mentioned this situation before.

There will be another chapter later

By the way, I really didn't mean to break the chapters. I can usually finish writing in one breath during a climax like a competition. I really couldn't finish it before.

But as for Gaoyue Shang, I would finish it in one go if I can.
